ERIE, MI (June 25, 2019) – NEFCO, North East Fabrication Company, Jonesville, Michigan, has partnered with Lane Automotive Sprints On Dirt powered by King Engine Bearings / MSD Performance / Motul to give drivers with 360 engines a chance to win an extra bonus at all SOD races throughout the rest of 2019.
The NEFCO Top 360 Award will pay the top finishing 360 $100 and a unique 10” diameter laser-cut medal for the winner. When SOD returns to Butler on Saturday, July 6th for the $2,500-to-win Independence 25, the NEFCO Top 360 Award will be a whopping $500!

Chad Blonde battles to take the win at Butler
ERIE, MI (June 23, 2019) – Saturday brought sunny skies,
warm temperatures and exciting racing for Lane Automotive Sprints On Dirt
powered by King Engine Bearings / MSD Ignition / Motul at Butler Speedway and Chad
Blonde battled past early leader Josh Turner to drive off to the win.
Pole sitter Turner took the lead on the start over outside
front row starter Jay Steinebach. The
action was hot and heavy behind the leaders with several cars battling for
third through seventh. Turner opened up a slight lead as Steinebach slipped
over the top in turn two and dropped several positions. Turner maintained his lead through a red flag
when Luke Daugherty got on his side in turn four and several cautions. Blonde worked his way forward from his
seventh starting spot and began to challenge Turner. With the leaders utilizing the bottom of the
track, Blonde powered into the lead on lap 17 and drove off to the win.
The racing was intense and passing was plentiful. Daryl Shaffer was MAHLE / KSE Hard Charger,
advancing 9 positions. Thomas Schinderle
(+8), Ryan Ruhl, driving his own 360 #16 (+7), and winner Blonde (+6) showed
how exciting and competitive the racing was.
The non-stop heat races started the night of close racing as
Quentin Blonde took the Engler Machine & Tool Heat over Turner and Jacob
Hesson who started ninth. Jay Steinebach
won the King Engine Bearings Heat with Zane DeVault finishing second and Boston
Mead third.
It was announced that SOD will return to Butler on Saturday,
July 6th for the $2,500-to-win Independence 25. With last night’s great racing in mind, the
I-25 should be a great one!
